Default Baker high torque bearing install.

I have a 06 dyna and thinking about useing this. I read some people remove the covers on the bearing and some do not. I assume the seal should get lubrication through the oil passage hole all input will be appreciated.

It is about 50/50 some folks choose to trust the lube in the sealed bearing some don't. I have ran them both ways and had zero problems.

Just recieved the Baker bearing. I purchased it from Powersports Superstore and came with no install instructions.My question is are others making this and saying it is a Baker. It slides on the shaft very easy and worried about slip between shaft and inner bearing sleeve. Should some kind of loctite be used.

It is a slip fit bearing no loctite needed. Reuse the stock snap rings and use the seal provided with the kit and you're good to go.
